“The 2012 Biserno is a seriously beautiful wine that is going to need time to fully open up. Mocha, plum, espresso and grilled herbs are some of the signatures, but the 2012 is a baby and not fully expressive at this early stage. Dark, opulent and large-scaled in conception, the Biserno has a lot to offer. Hints of dark red cherry, raspberry jam, spices and torrefaction blossom on an intense finish supported by suave, polished tannins. The Cabernet Franc is particularly expressive here. Drinking window: 2017-2027. 94 points
Lodovico Antinori continues to step up his game. These current releases are gorgeous. The entry-level Pino di Biserno is one of the best Maremma reds readers will find in its price range, while the flagship wines are naturally much more ambitious in both quality and price. Readers who enjoy the intense aromatics and structure of Maremma Cabernet Franc will find these wines particularly appealing.”
